Jazz Pianist Rob Mullins New CD A Musical Feast!

David Arivett | 07/05/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

""Storyteller is an expert blending of jazz, classical, world, film score, and new age flavors. Besides having great compositional skills, Rob has an incredible technique and command of the piano and it is apparent throughout this CD.

There is a great amount of variety with up tempo barn burners and peaceful, quiet, reflective moments that will touch you in a deep and meaningful way. One of my favorites is the very beautiful slow ballad "Sleep Sweet" which has a great melody with a little soulful J.S Bach thrown in as well...( would love to hear Rob record this with a Tenor sax playing this very touching melody with Rob on the piano!)

Another outstanding track is "Back In The Day" which is vintage Rob Mullins straight ahead Jazz with bluesy twists and superb jazz piano soloing! "In The Sun" is an up tempo gospel/jazz tinged pedal point offering reminiscent of some of Keith Jarrett's gospel/jazz compositions. Storyteller contains much to groove and chew on and Rob shares his "story" in a most unique and imaginative way! - David Arivett (Keyboardist/composer and founder of the CJA Network)

"Another exciting CD by Rob Mullins. I've followed Rob for many years, at his gigs, at his website, waiting anxiously for his next musical creation, and "Storyteller" doesn't disappoint. Excellent listening choice."

The Best Rob Mullins Album Ever

Max March | 05/09/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've always known Rob Mullins to be a great live performer. STORYTELLER confirms him to also be a great composer.

A long-time local favorite in the L.A. live music scene, I've watched him and his various bands rock the house doing mostly covers and standards but also a few original pieces countless times. Close to a year ago, I picked up his STANDARDS & MORE album on iTunes and I used to consider that album to be the MUST-HAVE album if you wanted to hear this man do his thing.

STORYTELLER totally raises the bar. It blows the doors off of everything else I've ever heard from Rob Mullins. The music crosses over geographic boundaries, musical boundaries, every kind of boundary and shatters it. Somehow he brings it all together to one universal concept that he clearly sets out in the liner notes. I love that he put himself out there and built every track around a key idea like a traditional concept album should.

You'll get something new out of it each and every time you play the tracks as you come to realize and appreciate how much thought and consideration went into every single element that drives the story. First rate production top to bottom. STORYTELLER is a complete success in every way I can describe it. I highly recommend it."

STORYTELLER CD BY ROB MULLINS

Cheryl Hullin | 08/27/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Rob Mullin's STORYTELLER CD is one of the best musical compositions I've ever heard. His ability to keep evolving through his music is inspiring. This particular CD has a classical touch to it while Mullins remains true to his jazz roots. The classical infuence is especially evident in the piece, "Sleep Sweet". Still, every other song invokes the feeling of pure fascination! He blends the two musical genres together in such an extraordinary way that the listener is swept away into a world of beauty. Mullins is doing what he was surely born to do and that is to compose and play great music. I believe history will portray him as one of the most important musicians of our time!"
